“When there was no whiskey to be had here, and we needed it for rational purposes, I built a house to make it in. When the distillery was almost completed and in good working order, an army was heard of in our vicinity and I shut up the works; I did not make a gallon of whiskey at my works, because it came here in great quantities, more than was needed.”Brigham Young, June 7, 1863 · Home Manufactures—The Necessity of Greater Attention to Them—Tithing · JD 10:200-208
